"Why did you come running over here?" Mason Bennett looked at that bright, sunny smile, and the corners of his mouth lifted a bit.
Bella Green coming to his company was quite a surprise for him.
You know, this little thing always avoided him when there was nothing up, and it was the first time she actively sought him out.
Looking at the face in front of her, so handsome it made people lose their grip, Bella Green moved her gaze away feeling guilty.
She couldn’t just say she missed him and impulsively decided to come over, right?
"Uh, just passing by, then I saw a beautiful lady, so I followed along."
As soon as these words were out, the man’s previously smiling face instantly turned cold.
This little thing, still thinking about his secretary?
For some reason, Mason Bennett felt a strange wave of frustration rolling through his chest, unable to suppress it for a while.
He took a deep breath, looking at Bella Green, who cluelessly looked around: "Come here."
"What for?" Bella Green withdrew her gaze, looking puzzled.
Mason Bennett pressed his lips, staying silent and expressionless. His deep eyes carried an undercurrent of irresistible authority, making Bella Green feel a bit intimidated, quickly walking over with a grin.
"Brother, any instructions?"
That word ’brother’ disturbed Mason Bennett’s breath, dissipating some of his irritation.
The man squinted his eyes with a hint of danger; this little thing was good at pleasing people.
The man’s question made Bella Green blink in confusion, but she still obediently answered, "Nineteen."
This answer made the man slightly surprised. Looking at that fair and youthful face, no matter how he looked, she seemed like a minor.
He had even always considered her to be sixteen or seventeen years old.
Nineteen years old, still looking , simply... embarrassing!
Mason Bennett showed undisguised disdain in his eyes; a boy looking too pretty just seemed inappropriate to him.
He thought before she was young, so it didn’t matter, as she hadn’t matured yet, but being nineteen and still so tender was too girlish.
"Not even twenty yet, no early dating, understand?" Mason suddenly put on a stern face, his tone filled with an elder’s warning command.
"Nineteen is already an adult." Bella Green had black lines across her face; did this man misunderstand something about early dating?
Mason Bennett’s expression grew more somber at her words, was this little thing really thinking about his secretary?
He lifted his finger, tapping the table twice forcefully, his voice carrying an undeniable coldness: "Nineteen is still a child, no early dating."
Bella Green: "..." In a past life, when you stubbornly wanted to marry me, why didn’t you consider I was still a child?
"Answer." The deep voice spread oppressively.
Bella Green, startled by the man’s reaction, nodded obediently, even though she didn’t understand why he was so hung up on no early dating.
After all, she wasn’t planning to fall in love, so she might as well agree.
Thinking about it, she suddenly smiled, "By the way, I’ll be twenty in six months."
Why did hearing the little thing talking about dating make his chest feel so... stifled?
"Still, no random girlfriends, and when you’re older, I’ll introduce you to a suitable girl."
"Are you sure?" Bella Green looked at him with a strange expression.
Before Mason Bennett could ask, Bella continued to question daringly.
"Don’t you think it’s quite unreliable for a single guy like you to say that?"
